This month is a truly special blog hop because we are focusing on scripture. As you know, Korin's tag line for Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps is "sharing the love of Christ through paper crafting." I love that about SNSS; it's one of the main reasons I'm so happy to be part of the design team. SNSS carries a wonderful assortment of scripture stamp sets and stamp sets with scriptures as part of the greeting selections, all currently 25% off!

The set I chose for my card is His Eye is on The Sparrow. I just love birds, so I'm naturally drawn to stamp sets that feature birds. This one is sooooo beautiful and has many lovely greetings to choose from. Mine features the scripture quote: But even the very hairs of your head are numbered. Fear not, therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows. Luke 12:7

There's a song that's been on my mind ever since I started working on this card and with this particular scripture. It's called He Knows My Name.

I have a makerHe formed my heartBefore even time beganMy life was in His hands

He knows my nameHe knows my every thoughtHe sees each tear that fallsand He hears me when I call

I have a fatherHe calls me his ownHe'll never leave meNo matter where I go

He knows my name He knows my every thought He sees each tear that falls and He hears me when I call

I know it sometimes seems like God is not listening and that he couldn't possibly care about us if all these terrible things are happening. But it's not true! God IS listening and He IS with you always, blessing you in ways that you cannot even know. Never doubt that, and pray for Him to let you know that He is there and does care. He will answer your prayer!

This is lovely Lisa! Thank you for your words of encouragement and sharing that song :). What a blessing to know that our Heavenly Father loves us and understands what we are going through because he knows everything about us!

Hi Lisa my SWEET FRIEND!! Thanks for the comments and kind words... I am truly inspired by your last paragraph!! You are so right about just listening to GOD and he does watch over us.

Now your card just {{ROCKS}} blog land for sure! I'm just blown away on the colors, mix of DP's and those border punches are a WOW to your card! Great job on the coloring too... :)

The training this week is going well! I study at night to get a better grip on the codes, info, insurances, etc. I see you have 100 degrees right now for temps.... WOW! This weekend we are in the mid 60's and we have leaves changing. Fall is in the air... just early! I will pop in to leave more comments tomorrow. I like what I see and so inspired by your cards girl!! :)

Lisa, this is such a vibrant card -- so, SO lovely!! Thank you for sharing the words to that beautiful song. It is such a comfort to know that the Lord knows us each by name, and that He really is there and listening and loving us all the time.
